| As a traditional opera widely known in Northern Jiangsu, Huai Opera has exerted extensive influence among the local populace. To fully leverage the positive role of Huai Opera in mobilizing the masses and supporting the war effort, literary and artistic workers in the Northern Jiangsu Base Area, represented by Huang Qiming, revamped the traditional Huai Opera by "repackaging with new content", creating a multitude of new Huai Opera works with distinct epochal features, such as Zhao Jian Bu Wu and Yu Bin He Bian. These operas played an significant role in publicizing the Party's policies, advancing rent and interest rate reduction campaigns, exposing the nature of Kuomintang die-hards, guiding the masses to cherish the Communist Party of China and the New Fourth Army, and enhancing the populace's patriotic consciousness. |
